Purple comb milky poop

[Wyorp Rock]

I have a couple with runny poop that’s white and one that’s green smelly. I’ve delt with coccidosis in the past this doesn’t seem the same. Here is poop from some of the other birds. No blood. No puffing up. One of my other EE may be starting to get lethargic. Just started ivermectin in their water and going to get safeguard in a bit. The girl I got the hatching eggs from seems to think worms.

Can o add corid to the ivermectin water?

If they have already been drinking water with ivermectin can I give them CORID too? I have another hen acting lethargic now!

Show a photo of the Ivermectin you are using. It usually does not go into the water, it's either applied topically, direct dose orally or by injection depending on what you have - all doses are by weight.

Corid should be the only thing in the water.
Do you have a vet that can get you some antibiotics? Sulfa drugs?

The red is intestinal shedding. Possible worms may be part of the problem, but whatever you are dealing with sounds like it's coming on quickly and you have more birds becoming symptomatic.

Clean and sanitize water stations, check your feed to make sure it's not gotten moldy.
Could they have eaten anything rotten, dead, toxic, moldy....? Any changes in their environment, have you given anything new, added new birds?

How long have you had these birds?

Coccidiosis usually causes diarrhea. Those poops are way too normal to point directly to coccidiosis.

However, I feel you can't go wrong assuming coccidiosis. Treatment is far too easy to forego when you consider how deadly coccidiosis can be left untreated.

You may treat for worms and coccidia at the same time, but I agree with @Wyorp Rock that the amprolium should be the only med in the water.

I meant to mention the intestional shed, the orange stuff in the poop. That can be considered normal when it's a one-off. But if it persists or increases in amount, it should be taken as a symptom of infection and/or inflammation. I treat with an antibiotic when shed increases in rate of occurrence or quantity.

It’s the injectable ivermectin. I was told by a breeder 4mL in a gal of water for worms. So I added it. Just maybe 3 hours ago. The birds are 10 weeks old. I hatched them via shipped eggs from someone in state. They are on medicated feed, but do free range all day my sickest one is separated I. A kennel inside. The other one is outside with the flock. She’s still running around but is laying down with eyes closed more than normal. She is still eating and drinking. I have a sulfa abx and powder CORID.

So would you go VORID or sulfa abx in the water

 

[azygous]

Sulfa is a perfect antibiotic to pair up with Corid.

 

[ABakes09]

I bought the liquid goat dewormer. How should I use it to deworm if I put the other in the water

 

[ABakes09]

Sulfa is a perfect antibiotic to pair up with Corid.

So can I do both in the water?

 

[azygous]

Yes, as long as the sulfa is formulated to be dissolved in the water.

Yes it is
